Set to all low quality and your native resolution. Monitor the FPS.
Now reduce the resolution to say 1024x768. Do you see higher FPS?

If you don't get an FPS boost at lower res then you can conclude your old q6600 (is it at 2.4ghz?) is a massive bottle neck.
Also if you run MSI afterburner and set the overlay to monitor your 4 CPU cores, do they show high utilisation?
